    If you want a 10, you have to be a 10 yourself. Spot on, Steve!

      But who determines what qualifies as a 10? Anyone can be a 10. Dress classy, walk classy, act classy and you're a 10. Steve Harvey does not look like Idris Elba, but he is a 10. He is handsome, well-dressed, and funny. He's a 10. Stop selling yourselves short and thinking there is one definition of a 10. Look your best, act classy, and you will be seen as a 10.

    I'm that friend that gives blunt, perhaps harsh advice. For me its because I care about the person and I want them to excel and for others to see them the way I see them. Obviously, that is not how people take it though. In their opinion, it seems like they are not good enough that I am asking them to improve. Which also makes sense.

    I prefer honest but not jealous friend. I think mean friends come from jealous place. As far as the comment about dating 10 for 10, I can’t agree more. People have unrealistic views on their character and appearance and go for people out of their league. I believe there is a soulmate for everyone; it’s just matter of being reasonable and pay attention to those people who pay attention to you.

A man can be a 5 in looks, but as long as he works on his purpose, get in shape and get his money right, he can pull a dime. As a women, you have to understand that a man don’t care about your money. He wants a feminine attractive women and that’s it! Women need to hear this!

    Those who seem to value their forthright ability for brute honesty is all well and good - but all too often, these people fail to recognize the way their brute honesty can come off as brazenly opinionated, overly judgmental, and even down right rude.
    Those who are more civilly inclined, are often scoffed and rejected by these brutally honest types, mainly because they mistake manners for fake-ness.
    Unfortunately - the brutally honest types are clearly missing the viability in their faltering unapproachability - everyone has shortcomings, the civilly inclined types can mistake brutal honesty as unsolicited rudeness. In my most brutally honest opinion - brutal honesty should never ever trump manners and kindness.
